Dual RNA-Seq Analysis of Trichophyton rubrum and HaCat Keratinocyte Co-Culture Highlights Important Genes for Fungal-Host Interaction

ABSTRACT: Purpose: Evaluate the transcriptional profile of genes involved in fungus-host interactions using RNA sequencing Methods: T. rubrum and HaCat cells line were co-cultured in RPMI medium supplemented with 5% of fetal bovine serum and were incubated for 24 h at 37ºC in a humidified atmosphere containing 5% CO2 , followed RNA by extraction of both organisms, libraries construction and sequence. Results: Our data demonstrated the induction of specific genes that may improve the assimilation of nutrients and fungal survival in the host and genes encoding keratinolytic proteases that are important for T. rubrum virulence during infection. In HaCat cell lines it were induced genes encoding antimicrobial activity , cell migration and epithelial barrier repair. Futhermore, the genes KRT1 and FLG involved in epithelial barrier integrity were repressed Conclusions: This mixed transcriptome analysis showed the modulation of important genes involved in the mechanism of T. rubrum infection and in the defense and maintenance of cell homeostasis of keratinocytes, which could represent potential antifungal targets for new therapeutic approaches to the treatment of dermatophytoses

Trichophyton rubrum transcriptome in response to acriflavine

Project description:Purpose: The dermatophyte Trichophyton rubrum is an anthropophilic filamentous fungus that infects keratinized tissues and is the most common etiologic agent isolated in cases of human dermatophytoses. To better understand the molecular effects of stress responses and fungal adaptability, we evaluated the effects of acriflavine, a cytoxic drug, on T. rubrum transcriptome in a time-course assay using high-throughput RNA-seq technology. Results: RNA-seq generated approximately 200 million short reads that were mapped to the Broad Institute’s Dermatophyte Comparative Database before differential gene expression analysis. A subset of 490 genes modulated in response to stress caused T. rubrum exposure to acriflavine were identified. These genes are involved in various cellular processes such as oxidation-reduction reactions, transmembrane transport, metal ion binding, and pathogenicity. The genes involved in pathogenicity were down-regulated, suggesting that this drug interferes with virulence factors that allow the establishment and maintenance of host infection. Conclusion: The results obtained in this large-scale analysis provide insights into the molecular events underlying the stress responses of T. rubrum Acriflavine.

The transcriptional profile of Trichophyton rubrum co-cultured with human keratinocytes shows new insights about gene modulation by terbinafine.

Project description:Purpose: Evaluate the effect of terbinafine in T. rubrum gene expression using a co-culture model in conjunction with RNA-seq Methods: T. rubrum and HaCat cells line were co-cultured in RPMI medium supplemented with 5% of fetal bovine serum and treated with 0.0162 µM of terbinafine.The co-culture was incubated for 24 h at 37ºC in a humidified atmosphere containing 5% CO2 , followed RNA by extraction of both organisms, libraries construction and sequence. Results: Our data demonstrated the modulation of several T. rubrum genes involved in the biosynthesis of ergosterol in addition to the target gene of terbinafine that is already known, genes encoding MFS- and ABC-type membrane transporters that are associated with the phenomenon of multidrug resistance, genes that have been discussed in the literature as possible novel targets for antifungal compounds and genes which do not have a known function in T. rubrum yet, but have been modulated in response to the drug. Conclusions: RNA-seq sequencing of the T. rubrum co-culture in the presence of terbinafine showed that several genes of the ergosterol biosynthesis cascade were repressed. We highlight the induction of transmembrane transporters, which may be associated with the efflux of this allylamine. In addition, other genes that could be involved in the pathogenicity of T. rubrum were also modulated in the presence of the drug. In addition, we observed the modulation of hypothetical genes with still unknown functions in T. rubrum but that possess orthologs in other dermatophytes.

Dermatophytes CGH based on a Trichophyton rubrum cDNA microarray

Project description:A cDNA microarray was constructed from the expressed sequence tags (ESTs) of different developmental stages, and comparative genome hybridization based on microarray procedures were carried out. Dermatophyte species are classified into three genera: Epidermophyton, Microsporum, and Trichophyton. To determine the relationship between these three groups comparative genome hybridization were used in our experiment. Trichophyton rubrum genmic DNA was reference DNA and labelled by Cy3 while the other dermatophytes genomic DNA were test DNA and labelled by CY5. Test and reference DNA were co-hybridized with the T. rubrum cDNA microarray and the numbers of genes shared between each species and T. rubrum were determined. Keywords: Comparative Genomic Hybridization We used a Trichophyton rubrum cDNA microarray prepared in our lab through comparative genome hybridization of genomic DNA of 21 dermatophyte strains (belonging to 20 species) to elucidate the taxonomy and evolution profiles of 20 dermatophyte species. The numbers of genes shared between each species and T. rubrum were determined. Each strain DNA hybridized for 3 times. The slides were separated into three groups base on different datasets.

Transcriptional changes of the human pathogenic fungus Trichophyton rubrum related to dermatophyte-skin interaction

Project description:Trichophyton rubrum, an anthropophilic and cosmopolitan fungus, is the most common agent of superficial mycoses, causing rarely deep dermatophytosis in immunocompromised hosts. In this study, an infection condition of T. rubrum was modeled by adding human skin sections into a limited medium containing glucose to monitor T. rubrum gene expression patterns using cDNA microarrays on a global level. We found that exposure to human skin resulted in up-regulation of the expression levels of T. rubrum genes related to many cellular and biological processes, including transcription and translation, metabolism and secondary transport, stress response, and signaling pathways. These results provide a reference set of T. rubrum genes whose expression patterns change upon infection and reveal previously unknown genes that probably corresponding to proteins that should be considered as virulence factor candidates and potential new drug targets for T. rubrum infections.

A transcriptome survey of Trichophyton rubrum exposed to undecanoic acid

Project description:Purpose: We assessed the transcriptome of the pathogenic fungus T. rubrum through RNA-seq analysis to identify transcriptome-wide changes in gene expression after challenge with undecanoic acid (UDA) Methods: T. rubrum conidia (about 1x10^6 conidia per mL) were grown on Sabouraud medium for 96h, at 28ºC under shaking. The resulted mycelium was transferred to RPMI 1640 medium in the absence or presence UDA (17.25 μg/mL) for 3h and 12h under shaking. Approximately 100 mg of frozen mycelia were used for total RNA extraction using Illustra RNAspin Mini Isolation Kit (GE, USA) and treated with RNAse-free DNAse I. RNA concentrations were estimated through NanoDrop ND-1000 spectrophotometer, and RNA integrity was verified using Agilent Bioanalyser platform 2100. RNA libraries were prepared for sequencing according to Illumina guidelines. Results: We identified changes in specific functional categories, indicating that a significant number of genes respond to the stress induced by UDA, including those that determine fungal virulence. Moreover, the data generated provide evidence that UDA induces the alternative splicing of several genes involved in diverse metabolic pathways. Conclusions: The general effect of UDA fungal toxicity involves changes to fungal metabolism and mechanisms for regulating pre-mRNA processing events.
